patch "vt_ioctl: fix array_index_nospec in vt_setactivate" added to tty-linus

[<gregkh@linuxfoundation.org>]

This is a note to let you know that I've just added the patch titled

    vt_ioctl: fix array_index_nospec in vt_setactivate

to my tty git tree which can be found at
    git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/gregkh/tty.git
in the tty-linus branch.

The patch will show up in the next release of the linux-next tree
(usually sometime within the next 24 hours during the week.)

The patch will hopefully also be merged in Linus's tree for the
next -rc kernel release.

If you have any questions about this process, please let me know.

Subject: vt_ioctl: fix array_index_nospec in vt_setactivate

array_index_nospec ensures that an out-of-bounds value is set to zero
on the transient path. Decreasing the value by one afterwards causes
a transient integer underflow. vsa.console should be decreased first
and then sanitized with array_index_nospec.
